2022 Mach 1 Whipple build

[NJMike]

Awesome can’t wait to see your comments on it, pics and hopefully video.

Pics, and comments for sure. Video I suck at that, but will give it a try.

*Alignment and front bumper assembly is about all that is left. Unless we get weather like today over the next few months, sadly I wont be giving much of an update. My M1 will be a garage queen

Definitely a packaging issue. Check the order serial number with the actual serial number on the part is the first step to take for those looking for this kit. I was a bit angry, but staying angry would not have helped me get the situation to an agreeable remedy without spending much more money than I want to on this. I do hope my experience helps others

This is a whipple issue. Not a Mach 1 exclusive issue. I have done two whipples installs now. Missing bolts, wrong belts, improper hoses have been a long issue with whipple.

that was better, thank you. The kit does look similar from what I saw, but the air box is not the same. The airbox he installed had a lower portion and upper, mine was a one piece unit. The coolant tank does look the same and is resting against the oil cooler. I couldnt see or didnt notice the coolant lines but with a different airbox the issues are not the same

I was watching it on my 55” TV so u can see the bottom of lower air box and the hoses. The lower intake box has no bottom.It all cut out.

Nothing really to provide at the moment. James was going to do the alignment last Wed and said I need to have rear adjustable camber links, the tires will wear real uneven if I dont. These arrived from BMR last night so hoping they go on today and I can bring it home in the next few days.

Its done and back home. Its raining so I cant give any feedback other than I was scared driving the mile home in the rain.
James was awesome (thats him in the Snap-On sweatshirt)! He loves the sound of the stock exhaust with Kooks/green cat he's going to put the same thing on his 19 Roush GT.
Issue #1 - the front is too low. The bottom of the splitter is 3&3/4" maybe 7/8 but it is low snd may get lower as the springs settle.
*Edit - also getting it on the alignment rack with the front bumper/splitter was a nightmare.
James also attempted to install the rock guards for me but was unsuccessful because the arms for the lift were in the way. He noted that they wouldnt have been able to get it on the alignment rack if they were installed and the car lowered.

Forgot the "foglight" blanks... He removed the drivers side to open the air straight to the airbox. Have to see if I like the look,, might have to alter the pass side
